I gave a talk entitled “Why Bisexuals Have Worse Health than Gays & Lesbians — And What We Can Do about All Health Disparities,” based on the book I co-authored, Bisexual Health (2007: National Gay & Lesbian Task Force). Those […]

The most recent entry tells us that bi people like The Rock — what a coincidence, because I like The Rock. He doesn’t choose […]

I’m pretty excited about a new anthology coming out this spring! It’s called Femmethology, and it’s all about femmes. And my friend Sand and I co-authored an essay that’s in it! Femmethology is actually going to be a two-volume set. Our piece is in the first volume, fyi.
Anyway, as part of the campaign to spread […]

Last week I spoke at an event for potential MBA students at my school. I was asked to tell the audience my favorite school memory thus far. Little did I know at the time that the best thing that could ever happen to me at UC Berkeley was yet to occur.
